Equipment:

  4. Add the diced tomatoes, black beans, corn, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until heated through.
  5. Remove the skillet from heat and add the cooked rice to the skillet. Stir to combine.
  6. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the rice and beef mixture.
  7. Cover the skillet with a lid and let sit for 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
